Medical-Grade Microneedling in Ottawa
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a medical grade treatment that creates tiny controlled channels in the skin to stimulate natural collagen production.
It helps improve acne scars, fine lines, uneven texture, and enlarged pores. As your skin heals, it becomes smoother, firmer, and more even over time.
What Are the Benefits of Microneedling?
Microneedling stimulates natural collagen production to improve overall skin quality and texture. Because it works with your body’s healing response, results develop gradually and look natural.
This treatment is commonly used to improve:
• Acne scars and post-acne marks
• Fine lines and early signs of aging
• Uneven skin tone
• Enlarged or visible pores
• Rough or uneven skin texture
• Dull or tired looking skin
• Mild stretch marks
• Areas needing subtle skin tightening
Professional microneedling also enhances the absorption of targeted serums, helping skincare products work more effectively.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Microneedling?
Microneedling is ideal for adults who want to improve acne scars, fine lines, uneven texture, or visible pores without aggressive treatments.
It’s best for those looking for gradual, natural-looking results and healthier skin over time.
How Much Does Microneedling Cost in Ottawa?
In Ottawa, microneedling typically ranges from 300 to 600 dollars per session depending on the clinic and the technology used. At All That Beauty Bar, it is 400 dollars per treatment using medical grade equipment with controlled depth for safety and consistent results.
We assess your skin carefully and recommend a treatment plan based on what you want to improve and what your skin needs.
How Many Microneedling Treatments Do I Need?
Most clients need three treatments for meaningful improvement, especially for acne scars, fine lines, and deeper texture concerns. Sessions are spaced four to six weeks apart to allow collagen to rebuild properly.
Some choose maintenance treatments once or twice per year to maintain results.
When Will I See Results From Microneedling?
Many clients notice smoother, brighter skin within a few weeks. Deeper improvements, especially with acne scars or fine lines, develop gradually over several months as collagen rebuilds.
Is Microneedling Safe?
Yes. When performed with medical grade equipment and proper technique, microneedling is a safe, controlled treatment that stimulates your skin’s natural collagen production without damaging healthy tissue.
What Is Microneedling Recovery Like?
After microneedling, your skin will look pink to red, similar to a mild sunburn. For most our Ottawa clients, redness settles within 24 to 48 hours.
You may feel warmth or tightness the first day. Mild dryness or light flaking can occur as your skin begins renewing itself.
Microneedling remains one of the most trusted skin rejuvenation treatments because it works with your skin rather than forcing change. Instead of aggressive resurfacing, it supports your body’s natural repair process for results that look like you, just smoother, stronger, and more even.
At All That Beauty Bar, we use medical grade needles and precision engineered technology to control depth carefully and treat your skin safely. That level of precision protects healthy tissue while stimulating collagen in a way your skin can respond to comfortably and consistently.
When performed with professional technique and high quality equipment, microneedling allows the skin to heal cleanly and improve texture, tone, and firmness gradually. The result is visible change that feels natural and lasts.
Why Choose Medical Grade Microneedling?

Day of appointment:
Arrive with clean skin

After Your Treatment
Immediately after treatment, your skin will appear red and may feel warm or tight, similar to a mild sunburn. This is a normal response and part of the healing process.

Days one to five:
Continue gentle cleansing and hydration

Real Results Take Consistency
Microneedling is not a one time quick fix. The most noticeable, confidence boosting changes happen with consistency and proper spacing.
Most clients begin with a series of three to four treatments spaced about four weeks apart. After the first session, skin often looks smoother and more refreshed. With each treatment, deeper concerns like acne scars, fine lines, and uneven texture continue to soften in a way that looks natural and never overdone.
Once your initial series is complete, many clients maintain their results with one or two treatments per year to keep their skin strong, smooth, and resilient.
It is not about changing your face. It is about helping your skin look healthier, firmer, and more youthful while still feeling like you.

Performed by Trained Skin Professionals

-
Microneedling is generally well tolerated. Most clients describe the sensation as light pressure or a mild scratching feeling rather than pain. A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to keep you comfortable, especially in more sensitive areas.
-
Downtime is typically mild and short lived. Most clients experience redness similar to a mild sunburn for 24 to 48 hours. Some dryness or light flaking can occur over the next few days as the skin renews itself.
-
Many clients notice smoother texture and a refreshed glow after their first treatment. More significant improvements in acne scars, fine lines, and uneven texture develop gradually with a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart.
-
The number of treatments depends on your skin concerns and goals. Many clients benefit from a series of three to six microneedling sessions spaced several weeks apart. During your consultation, we recommend a personalized treatment plan based on your skin.
-
Exfoliation should be avoided for at least five to seven days or until the skin is fully healed.
-
Collagen production continues for weeks and months after treatment, with results improving over time.
-
Microneedling is avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding as a precaution. Hormonal and immune changes can make skin more sensitive and unpredictable, increasing the risk of irritation, prolonged redness, or pigmentation.
-
Medical Conditions:
Active acne, skin infections, or open wounds in the treatment area
Autoimmune conditions that affect healing or skin integrity
Uncontrolled diabetes or conditions that impair wound healing
Bleeding disorders or clotting conditions
Active eczema, psoriasis, rosacea flare ups, or dermatitis in the treatment area
History of keloid scarring
Active cold sores or herpes outbreaksSkin cancer or suspicious lesions in the treatment area
Medications:
Accutane or isotretinoin use within the past six months
Blood thinning medications unless cleared by your physician
Certain immunosuppressant medications
Recent or current use of systemic steroids
Chemotherapy or radiation therapy
Topical prescription treatments that thin or sensitize the skin
-
Light pinpoint bleeding can occur during microneedling and is completely normal. This happens because the treatment creates controlled micro channels in the skin to stimulate collagen and trigger the natural healing response. Any bleeding is typically minimal and superficial, appearing as tiny dots rather than flowing blood, and it stops quickly during the treatment. The amount varies depending on skin type, treatment depth, and the area being treated. Mild pinpoint bleeding is actually a sign that the skin response has been effectively activated.
-
Microneedling is safe for most skin types when performed with proper technique and medical grade equipment. Depth and treatment settings are adjusted based on your skin condition and goals to ensure safe, controlled results.
